Welcome into The Art of Caesura!

We're shifting gears this week from The World of Smog: Rise of Moloch, over to another Kickstarter that I backed last year: Zombicide Green Horde!

On painting Winston a few weeks ago, I really liked the super small scale of that little animal, so I rooted around for a similarly miniscule mini; and what I found...was horrifying: ABOMINABUNNY!!

This little guy was a lot of fun...and he looks pretty lethal in the game too!

I started with White Scar and gave him a wash of 50:50 Drakenhoff Nightshade and Lahmian Medium - this gave him a nice eerie blueish tinge.

I highlighted the fur back up to white, leaving the grey-blue in the crevices.

Look at the cute little bunny...

His ears are Screamer Pink with Druchii Violet down towards the inner ear.

For his eyes, I shaded the sockets with Nuln Oil then dotted the eyes with Ushabti Bone and then White Scar.

His teeth are just White Scar with Seraphim Sepia. And then the blood. Oh yes, the blood! Blood for the Blood God painted down his front and then flicked on using my stiff stippling brush.

I know, a weird choice for my first Zombicide mini but I really enjoyed painting this guy!

Till next week on The Art of Caesura!

The Full Stop - A Deep Dive into Warhammer 40k Combat Patrol

Welcome to Combat Patrol! Whether you are a new recruit to Warhammer 40,000 or a seasoned veteran, Combat Patrol is all about getting your forces into action as quickly as possible. - Combat Patrol Rules - Games Workshop Welcome back to the Art of Caesura! Recent readers will see that we've been looking at our fun little Warhammer gathering, KillCon over the past few weeks. Two weeks ago I provided a narrative verion of my game of Combat Patrol of my Black Templars vs. Tristan's Tyranids where as l ast week I gave a more "gamer oriented" play-by-play of the game. Today I want to dive deeper into this accessible and engaging game-type. I want to argue that Combat Patrol is not just for beginners. Combat Patrol in 10th Edition is Games Workshop's new smallest scale Warhammer 40k game type. But unlike in previous editions, where it just meant that both sides took 500 point armies and went at it, in this edition, Games Workshop has changed things up a litt...

The Full Stop - Trench Crusade

The skies shall darken, the ground shall open up and the screams of the damned shall echo through the ages. - Novae Revelationes 99:24, Trench Crusade Greetings friends of the Caesura, and welcome back to your Friday dose of The Art of Caesura! I hope you are well, and I'm sending loads of positive vibes your way, especially if you need them today (and you will after reading of the awesome Grimdark horrors ahead). Last week we left off looking at my plans and aspirations for Hive Fleet Klendathu, and today I had planned to show you the test model that I have painted for this Starship Troopers-inspired Tyranid force. However, something cool is afoot, and it's kind of time-sensitive... That's right - there's a Kickstarter (which has now raised over 2 million dollars!) for a very Grimdark miniatures skirmish game and it is due to end on Tuesday, so I decided to reschedule things on the blog a little to draw your attention to this before you miss your chance. I am talki...
